You're not talking numbers at all, you're just speculating about what choices people would make based on your own class insecurity and some tenuous racial link. And about a completely fictional program, no less. There were lots of other black guys, war veterans,Vietnamese chicks, grumpy black female staffers and insecure white men with graduate degrees when I was at U of H, but you don't see me complaining about Mac from Night Court.
This is just wrong. Two income households would qualify on the basis of their actual incomes not if they both worked and having 3 kids would factor into that. and oh yea. Florida did not work and they recently moved into projects which was a better living situation. https://goodtimes.fandom.com/wiki/Florida_Evans The more you know
Nobody chooses to live in Chicago projects. Edit: thats so ridiculous i thought it was a mistake the first time you implied it
Everyone makes choices about housing, based on the options and incentives available. If you're too stupid to understand that, or just being obstinate to justify your need to be heard without thinking of something interesting to discuss, or having the work ethic to research or rationally defend your opinions, I don't know what to tell you.
People on housing need housing. They don't have options due to income Stop repeating that. Dont know what youre tryimg to prove. I was gonna buy a houses but ii chose the projects..
You're just vomiting nonsense now. People have options and make choices based on broader criteria than your convoluted middle-aged class, professional and racial insecurities. They especially have more options than a 30 year fixed and subsidized rental housing, and draw on significantly more lifestyle and local amenity choices than whatever you think you picked up on watching a dead sitcom with people who happen to look like you. Turn off "That's My Mama" on 39 Gold and go retake US History from 1877 at North Harris Montgomery County Lone Star Community College.
People in the projects are there because they are poor. Nobody wants to live in the projevts. Its not a racial issue. It's a poverty issue. You have to be poor to qualify to live there.
You made it a black issue with your idiotic OP. Find some other venue to exorcise your middle-aged racially tinged insecurities. Grown-ass man with a toddler's understanding of credit, housing, client prospecting, social networks and personal migration choices.
Youre talking about living in the projects. They are a safety net. Client prospecting. What are you talking about. On the show they lived there because they had the residents situation in reality to. On the show they want a better situation
@Dairy Ashford The whole show is based on them being poor. The entire overall theme in the family is getting out of those projects. Therefore its an understanding between audience and production that no one wants to be in the projects and to be there is to have no options Stop saying that dumb ****
You're inferring complete and total bullshit about people's capacity to find contentment or identify optimal housing choices in a low income setting. You're too stupid to consider things like commute time to work, proximity to long-term friends or extended family, enhanced availability of public transportation as compared to "the suburbs," all kinds of factors that would compel a rational family to choose subsidized housing near or in a large city. Once again substituting your own economic insecurities for that of fictional characters from 45 ****ing years ago.
People dont live for a commute. They are gvernment housing for lo w income You cant live there unless you're poor
@Dairy Ashford Im not making a value judgement on poor people. I am making a value judge on the cycle of poverty for some blacks That being said its ironic you calling me insecure because you're taking this personally Middle class blacks have to detach themselves emotionally while discussing things like poverty crime education in the inner city. You cant even admit black people in the projects are poor because you're emotional and you're making very ridiculous statements
Just a clarification - Florida didn't work until James died . . . Not on did other than James if I recall After his Death - Florida was a non-skilled laborer that started to work I think as a bus driver which was like what 4~6 hours a day at minimum wage JJ started doing odd jobs which were about the same as McDonalds Thelma went to school and had Dance classes - but never remember her working nor Micheal Their economics were dire. The Evans family had consistent bad behavior and honestly the over moralizing by Florida kept them impoverished the most major flaw was the double downing on the indoctrination that they had to come up "the right way" James had several opportunities to get his family out of the Ghetto but Florida would come in and say. . . BUT JAMES!!!!! THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!! and they eating gruel again Rocket River
